A large cat like creature, almost like a pale, and hairless, lion rampaged through the woods on its way toward the town.
It's blood red eyes glowed with hatred and malice, it was clear this thing was out to kill.
"Halt!"
A man clad in medieval style chain-mail stepped between it and the village, wielding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.
His surecoat was black, as was his shield, save for a white cross with a trinity Knot in the center.
"Be gone, creature of darkness!"
The man stepped forth, his blade raised high as ge slashed at it's head.
The monster was quick however, and easily dodged the blow before delivering it's own.
The knight moved fast, catching the fowl beast's claws across his shield and delivering a fatal thrust to it's hind leg.
The monster howled an unearthly shriek, it's wound oozing blood black as the shadow from which it came.
In a final desperate attempt to escape, it threw it's weight at the knight, whom batted it away with his shield before delivering the fatal blow with a sweep of his blade upon the creature's neck.
With a burst of flame, the beast left the wprld of the living, replaced with mere ash and bone.
Stepping back, the knight kneeled before his kill and bowed his head in a prayer of thanks for his victory, seemingly unaware of his spectator.
[spoiler]Open, you are the spectator.[/spoiler]

There's a large gust of wind right before a girl with large, pure white wings glides down gracefully from the sky and lands nearby. There's a certain divine glow that surrounds her that makes people feel calm and full of joy. She folds her wings and adjusts the halo above her head before stretching nonchalantly. "Damn, monsters..."
-
The knight hears her, but dosent look up until he's finished his prayer. When he does finally look up, he practically jumps out of his skin, falling over and crossing himself.
-
Cordelia looks over at the knight and can't help chuckling. "Looks like a son of Adam has seen a ghost."
-
He scrambles to a kneeling position, his head bowed. "What is the will of thine Lord?" He asks.
-
Cordelia hardly holds back a loud laugh. "Uhh....Get me some cake? Chocolate would be nice."
-
The knight looks up, obviously confused by her request. "Yee be not from thy Lord, are thee?" He asks.
-
"Depends on who your lord is. Nice kill by the way. Seemed like you opponent was too easy for you though." She sits down, cross legged in front of him.
-
"Er, thank you?" He replies getting up from his kneeling position.
-
She looks up at him and winks. "Your welcome, sir knight. Now, why don't you go slay a few dragons?"
-
"Er, dragons milady?" He asks. As if on que, something hisses from inside a nearby bush.
-
"Big lizards with wings that breathe fire? Eh, go check that bush." She lies down on her back.
-
The knight stands and approaches the bush, sword ready. Suddenly, two more of the hairless lion liie creature burst forth and begin to circle him. Cordelia can sense they seem to have an aura that's a perfect opposite to hers. "By the saints, is there no end to these demons?" The knight growls, readying his sword.
-
"Probs not." She sighs and looks up.
-
The creatures attack the knight, who slashes at them and keeps them back. A third demon appears, and moves towards Cordelia.
-
[spoiler]She's a higher up angel that slays monsters almost nonstop...[/spoiler] Cordelia casually flicks her wrist and her spear forms, flying towards the demon with a tip charged with holy light.
-
The demon explodes on contact. At the same moment, the knigh beheads one of the others. The third however manages to jump in and bite his leg, it's fangs sinking through his chain mail leggings. He gives a shout before stabbing it's head.
-
Cordelia yawns and stands up to retrieve her spear. "Done yet, knight?"
-
He sits down, removing the armor from his leg. There are two large puncture wounds from it's fangs, both turning a sickly yellow/black around the edges.
-
She picks up her spear and walks over to the man. "Huh. That needs healing."
-
He nods, his expression unreadable under his helmet, and reaches into a pouch on his belt for some medical herbs.
-
She stares down at him, watching. "So, what brings ya here?"
-
"I was sent by mine liege, the grand master of the Order, to investigate sightings of these fowl beasts on Tatakai. And behold, they are here." He says, pressing some herbs into the wound.
-
"Cool. So, are you gonna kill 'em all or go back and gets some friends to help?"
-
"The later, most likely." He replies, wrapping a bandage around his leg. And opening a vial of holy water to pour over it.
-
"I wonder if my spit would work as holy water...never tried it." She chuckles.
